    Yeah but I did not have to put any money here and now everyone wants cap. I just got my commissions lowered so I'm still giving it more time.

    I figure if I can last through this pathetic market, I can make some serious money when it really picks.

    Maybe those days of 1999 will come back sometime

  2. 1999 already happened this year. See SINA SOHU NTES AMZN ASKJ , etc...plus on NYSE AZO, BBY, COF, the Homebuilders etc.

    What do you trade now? ..consider charts like LEN CTX and BZH today..nice money to be made there...also AZO both ways, and FRX

    Check the charts.

    Best

  3. :eek:

    Hopefully that is not what you are banking on for success. And hopefully the senior guys at your firm are not pumping you full of that stuff to keep you motivated.

    My best ones were TIF, JEF and FSH.

    Some of the stocks u trade are complete pricks. Try to stay away from them.

    I was thinking of shorting FRX yersterday overnight after that move he made.

    I can hope cant I.

    At the least it should pick up a lot more. Most of these days are just dead with no direction.

  6. LOL! Sorry Mec'. I didn't mean to be a stock in the mud.

    I know you guys live for participation and follow-thru, and except for the odd day like yesterday, it has been dull.

    Today, the volume is good again, but it does not feel like it.

    I'm doing good, but I'm still dissapointed.

  8. With 10 handle moves in the S&P's now occuring intra-day, how can anybody be disappointed with the action of the past several days???
